Israel and Iran traded strikes for a second night, with Iran’s counterattack sending a barrage into Tel Aviv, Israeli officials said Friday.
The U.S. is assisting in Israel’s defense, an official confirmed.
The retaliatory strikes come hours after the Israeli military took out Tehran’s top military leaders and targeted key nuclear facilities in a surprise strike Thursday.
President Trump chided Tehran for not making a nuclear deal through several rounds of talks, but he held out hope it still could do so. “I told them what to do, but they just couldn’t get there. Now they have, perhaps, a second chance!” Trump wrote Friday morning on Truth Social.
Iran said Friday it was pulling out of talks, with the next round originally set for Sunday. Those weeks of talks, however, appear to have given cover to Israel to prepare its attack.
